Battery Percentage keep going down

I have a problem with the percentage gauge on my Raymond. It keeps going down even though I charge my battery. There are times I turn it on it will say 0 % and turn it off and back on and it will say 50%. I will charge the battery and it will say the same thing. Can anyone help me on this? Is it the battery or is it a board on the lift?

There is nothing wrong with the battery. There is something wrong electronically with the lift. By simply turning it on and off the gauge can go from 0% to 100% or 20%. The model is a EASI R30 TT.

Thanks for the reply. I have checked the water and also have checked the voltage after the charge. I am getting 39 volts on a 36 volt battery. All the cells are reading 2.2 volts. I have checked them before a charge also and I get 2.1 volts per cell. I do not know the voltage per cell or overall when there is a load on it. I have sent the battery in to a battery place to have it checked out. They said they will load test it and equalize it with there machine. I hope they find something with the battery. If not I will be back to troubleshooting the lifttruck.

1st, check the water in all the cells?
2nd get someone that knows how to read a VOM and take voltage readings of the battery, at rest and under a load of max lift (not drive).
